The Villager And The Spectacles

The Villager And The Spectacles

There was a villager. He was uneducated. He didn't have any idea how to read and write. He frequently saw people wearing spectacles while reading books or papers. He started wondering 'If I also have spectacles, I can also read like these people. I should go to town and purchase a pair of spectacles for myself.”

So one day, he went to a town. He entered a spectacles shop and asked the shop owner for a pair of spectacles for reading. The shopkeeper gave him different pairs of spectacles and a book. The villager tried all the spectacles individually. But he was unable to read anything. He told the shop owner that all those spectacles were useless for him. 

The shopkeeper looked at him suspiciously. Then he checked the book out. It was upside down! The shopkeeper said, "Maybe you don't know how to read.” The villager said, "No, I don't. I need to purchase spectacles so that I can read like others. But I cannot read with any of these spectacles." The shop owner controlled his laughter with great difficulty when he understood the genuine problem of his uneducated customer.  The shopkeeper then said, "my dear friend, spectacles only correct your eye defect, not your reading and writing ability. To study first, you should learn how to read and write”.

The Moral of the Story

The moral of the Villager And The Spectacles is that ignorance is blindness.

in a bag and went to the forest. They felt extremely hungry. Thus, one of them went to a nearby town to purchase food.  The other two stayed in the forest to deal with the bag of money. The thief that went for food had a malicious thought. He ate his food at a hotel. Then he bought food for his two mates in the forest. He mixed a strong poison with that food. He thought that those two would eat this contaminated food and die. Then, he will get all the money. 

Meanwhile, the two wicked men in the forest chose to kill their mate in return. They thought that they would split the money among them. All three wicked men did their cruel plans. The thief who needed all the cash for himself came to the forest with the poisoned food. The two men in the forest hit him and beat him to death. Then they ate the poisoned food and died. Accordingly, these evil people met with an evil end.

The villagers heard the yell and rushed to help him. But when they arrived there, they could see no lion and the kid was perfectly alright. The kid giggled at the fellow villagers saying, 'No Lion; I did it just for the sake of entertainment.' The villagers got highly irritated and returned with anger.
